Géneros y formación ingenieril: De la universidad a la industria

Abstract

From the last third of the twentieth century, the interest towards the discursive productions of academic education has increased. The aim of this paper is to present the repertory and gender distribution within a specific cycle of an Industrial Engineering degree in a university in Argentina. The analysis of frequency and distribution show a tendency towards a gradual incorporation of assignments in the industrial context. The analysis evidences a preponderance of practical knowledge and an interest in the early immersion of students in the technical and professional field. Also, aspects that deserve review are identified to help improve the teaching practices.
